See the Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma Sakuna DLC

Back in January 2025, Marvelous confirmed Sakuna and Tama from Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin would appear in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and now there’s a full trailer for the free DLC. It turns out that, after we the add-on, she’ll appear as a villager and be able to seen around town or added to our party as an ally when adventuring. It will be available at launch.

The video begins with a close-up of Sakuna’s character model in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma. Then, we see her use some attack actions with her hoe. After that, we can see her with Tama in front of a house and some rice paddies. It is then that a player using the Subaru male avatar comes up to speak with her. 

After that, it confirms Sakuna won’t be confirmed to the village in-game. She’ll be considered one of the NPCs you can add to your party as an ally. She is an Attacker type unit, and of course her physical attack is stronger than her magical one. The footage of the menu shows her at level 20, and there’s more gameplay that highlights the height difference between the avatar and her.

Here’s the full Japanese trailer:

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma will be available for the Switch, Switch 2, and PC on June 5, 2025, and the Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin free DLC will debut on that same day. Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin is available on the Switch, PS4, and PC.
